Helpme[edit]

An article I created is flagged as needing editing. Even after reading the guidelines, I am unsure what else needs to be done. Please advise.

The article is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fifty-nine_Particulars_laid_down_for_the_Regulating_of_Things

Thank you.VINCETL 02:28, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Well in Wikipedia we don't include large documents like that, we put them in Wikisource and link. For example Gettysburg Address, we don't actually include the speech, we link to it in Wikisource. So you need to remove the document stuff and put it in Wikisource. The remainder, the discussion about the document, is ok. You might like to add categories though.--Commander Keane 02:37, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I moved it as best I could understand. Please review it for compliance there. If the Wikipedia article needs changing please let me know also.VINCETL 12:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is a warning that the article moved to WikiSource is an orphan. I have it linked in this article, but evidently not correctly. Please advise on proper way. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VINCETL (talk • contribs)

the answer is in the code of your own page, which looks like this; [[Wikisource:ARTICLE|LINKEDNAME]] -- ∞Wirelain 16:45, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. It is now properly linked to WikiSource and is no longer marked as an orphan there.VINCETL 23:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
